Well - whil having only one panel displayed I choose View -> Zoom - > Restore default zoom. Text is displayed at the same scale factor, but after cloning to second panel it finally isn’t zoomed up. :D

Thank you guys once again. :D

But this is normal and expected behavior.
If you open a file, which gets still written by other applications and
YOU change something in the internal npp buffer, how should
npp know which part is the correct one?? Your changes?
The changes from the other application?
Did I miss something?

With data like

Thanks Peter, I was trying to cover as many variations as possible, forgot the ‘very first’ character one. It got me to thinking if perhaps I might have over complicated it a bit.

A couple of minutes work with your ‘data like’ example I got all the required numbers using:
Find What:(\d{3})(\d+)*
Replace With:\(\1\)\2

(432)1 trevor(345)6 never website (345)678 (123)4 trevor(345)6 never always (782)6242 (123)

It seems I don’t need to force the regex to check for a ‘word boundary’ (change between digit and ‘other character’) as it does it itself with the remainder of the regex. So just discarding the first option does not appear to change the outcome.

Cheers
Terry

It just worked… I think I was importing the wrong file xD

Thanks for the help guys!!

Saluti e molte grazie per la collaborazione

I thank you, and also commend you for finding an improvement on my solution. I might have to borrow that idea for any future requests.

In step#1 you say the occurrence MUST be at the beginning of the line. Not necessary if you know how to search for text within a line. In normal search mode just type the occurence to search for, it can be anywhere in the line. In regular expression mode the same can be true, however you can also be more selective using other search patterns to exclude some possibilities if required.

There are possibly some improvements to your step#4. Instead of \d\d\d\dX you can write this as \d{4}X. This means 4 of a single digit. If however this number could be larger than 4 digits, also consider \d+X which means as MANY digits as possible followed by a X (so 5X, 01X, 2304X, 1234567890123456789X etc). This is the ability available in the regular expression.

It appears that the author(s) of MarkdownViewer++ didn’t choose to implement local/relative links inside the MarkdownViewer++ pane. (Note that external URLs in the MarkdownViewer++ pane go to your default browser, and are not rendered in the MarkdownViewer++ pane, so it already decided against following and rendering external links in the embedded pane.)

The intention of the plugin is stated as “to view a Markdown file rendered on-the-fly” (quoted from MV++ homepage), rather than to be a fully-featured on-the-fly Markdown browser. It makes sense to me, in this design, that it wouldn’t change what’s in the viewer-pane, because the MarkdownViewer++ pane is a live rendering of the active markdown file in the active Notepad++ editor pane – and by rendering a different page there in the viewer pane than is active in the Notepad++ editor pane, it would confuse me as a user.

However, if you want to look through the open issues for MarkdownViewer++, you can see if someone has already asked for that feature; if not, you may submit your own request there. No guarantees that it will be implemented if asked for (if I had a vote, I would vote against it), but maybe the developer will agree with you rather than me, so it might be worth a try.

@Alan-Kilborn

might be to you, but i guess it’s due to linguistic differences.
to me, inappropriate has the meaning of obscene, rather than misplaced.

@cavelamb

There are some past postings which border on the area you refer to. i don’t personally use UDL (user defined language) or alter the fonts at all but hopefully these posts can enlighten you a bit.

@JJJoseph

we are glad you got it running again. 👍

Seems counter-intuitive, since the default is one closing tag included

this is not a default notepad++ behaviour, but maybe you have an extra notepad++ plugin installed, that is capable of auto-completing closing tags, so if both engines are enabled, you will get two closing tags.
(i think this seems to be the most logical reason)

but as long as just one of the 2 installed auto-closing tags features is enabled, you are good to go.

welcome to the notepad++ community, @nopunin10did

i am not sure if it works for your case, but here’s a first thing you can check:

compare the following on both of your windows 10 x64 machines:

open control Panel (all control panel items) > fonts --> font settings
and compare the option hide fonts based on language settings on both machines.
(usually hide fonts based on language settings should be disabled)

here’s a screenshot:

if you make any changes to these settings, please reboot to make sure they will be activated.

good luck.

i’m glad to hear it’s working, you are welcome.
